Thank you, Julio, for posting this link. I had heard only vaguely about the topic; it will be good to read AP's summary of their policies. I was 7 years old in 1945 when the war ended. My parents, like most other people, relied on radio and a daily paper for news which they were hungry for. AP and other news services were meeting a big need.

Another tome one can read is "Berlin Diary" by William L. Shirer, who worked a while for CBS. It covers the time period of 1934 to 1941, and details the restrictions they had to go through to get the news out.
